So...make a change (seriously).
I switched careers...gave up a significant income from a profession where I was actually really accomplished and respected, but didn't enjoy.
Transitioned to a completely new field, and (eventually) was earning more, and enjoying it more.
It's not easy--but life is short. Enjoy the journey.
Much respect man.
I needed to hear this from more people. I’m already planning on quitting and completely changing careers, the only thing that scares me a bit is that i’m 26 soon and sometimes it’s perceived to be late for a change of career at this age, but i’m starting to care less and
less about this perception.
LOL...I changed later than that...
And don't (ever) worry about what others think--the only person you need to worry about what they think is yourself.
In my case, I could have been successful, earned a very nice income--but I asked myself "do I want to be 65 years old still doing this and say -- gee, I wish I would have switched careers back when I had the chance..."
Plan it out (don't be impulsive) but forge your own path - and remember to enjoy the journey itself along the way...
26 and afraid to change careers? 🙄
Better now than later.
I wasted so much time in my 20s between trying to force myself through college and being really dumb and joining the military.
You are certainly smart and hard working. You can do whatever you wish, just about wherever you wish. You are only as stuck as you make yourself.
